I gave $5 to Obama for America today.
I didn't want to -- I don't think the Administration earned my confidence to the point where I would spent my hard-earned money, of any amount.

But goddamn it, a GOPuke victory in 2012 would end America, and probably western civilization, as we know it.

Save your few bucks. He'll be getting nearly a billion from the big donors, bundlers, and Super PACS.

beat the Republicans is wise. :thumbsup:

... And, unlike what some other people posted, I believe President Obama is going to need every cent because this is the first Presidential campaign since the lunacy of Citizens United was unleashed upon the country. There is a huge assortment of Bankers & Wall Street barons & Koch business scumbags who are willing to spend billions to take over the White House. President Obama IS going to need as much as we can donate to win.
